Good overview of the show, mentioning a lot of the artwork that's in the
exhibit, and the companion CD.
> In a way, what's most interesting about this show is not what you see
> but what you don't -- all the art that wasn't made, all the pieces that
> weren't attempted, because a musician or a filmmaker or a painter or a
> poet knew that to do so would mean endless legal battles and possible
> financial ruin.

> trouble, think of how many other people there must be who are holding
> their tongues -- because to say anything new and interesting would
> simply cost too much.
